My oldest son's friend was watching me with amused eyes.

Yeah, I guess I am.

And yeah, it is interesting.

but really is this thing necessary?

Why yes, Thousand dollar dog, it is. You are not allowed to snorfle at the many staples now holding your stomach together.

Oh.
Then, can I have a snack? It is hungry work being rushed to the vet clinic for emergency surgery and having to stay there for two days

Soon, Thousand Dollar Dog, soon.
Happy to have you home.

As Bill Waterson so aptly described it, through Calvin and Hobbes - the days here in Gawdessland are JUST PACKED!

This morning I enjoyed a wonderful walk that included roses, roses, roses and a good friend.

At a quiet bend in the river we came upon this bench and the serenity of the moment and the light made me reach for my camera.

Happy Canada Day
